When he was turned away at the VIP entrance, his fuse probably blew: a man shot at a concert hall in Paris.
During a concert at the Arena de Bercy in Paris, a man with a gun fired 17 times at an emergency exit from outside. There were no injuries and the man was arrested, police sources said on Tuesday. The man’s motives are unclear. He said he supported the rapper Booba and the farmers’ protests when he was arrested on Monday evening.
According to information from the newspaper “Le Parisien”, security forces had previously turned the man away at the VIP entrance because he did not have an entry ticket. He made incoherent statements on various current topics.
Police seize firearm
The police seized a weapon with a caliber of 7.65 mm. The man also had a knife and a screwdriver with him. 17 bullet holes were counted in the triple-glazed pane of the emergency entrance. The Italian singer Laura Pausini performed at the Arena de Bercy that evening.
The Summer Olympics will take place in the greater Paris area in five and a half months. Security precautions are to be massively increased for this major event.
